Family Balance Sheet

How Our Debt Freedom Plan Prepared Us for the Pandemic. Our emergency fund. I am totally paraphrasing the year, but had it not been for the money in our emergency savings, we would most likely have used credit cards to survive. This new business debt weighed on me. Our first storm: 2007. Storm #2: 2013.

I have written often about the importance of an emergency fund. We paid off our last non-mortgage debt in September and have since sent that loan’s monthly payment to our mortgage principal. We just finished paying off our non-mortgage debts and now we were considering taking out a car loan. Cash is King.

In September 2019, my husband and I accomplished our biggest financial goal in our almost 20 years of marriage. It was so big that I cried for two days straight– we paid off six figures in non-mortgage debts. After the first year, the new business debt weighed on me. Our non-mortgage loans totaled over six figures.
